Hello there!

Does anyone know of any reasonable temporary accommodation around Auckland City or North Shore City? Any information would be great.

Thanks.

Hi Julie

Not sure what your situation is but....... we have booked a holiday cottage for our first months stay on Kapiti coast, fully furnished and not too bad price wise. We will use this time to look for a more permanent rental & hopefully our container will arrive not long after.

Booked through
http://www.bookabach.co.nz/

Otherwise have a look here for rentals

Or
http://www.realestate.co.nz/

Good luck with your search

Hi, try www.holidayhouses.co.nz, they have a wide variety, nothing is going to be really cheap in auckland, but as it's winter and quiet you might get some good rates and also the longer you stay in one place the better deal. good luck. sue

Hi Julie,

If there are only 2 of you coming over then you could try this place:
http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-me-pr...-285287813.htm

It is a 1 bedroom place in Campbell's Bay - we stayed here for 3 months when we first arrived in NZ and it is wonderful! We didn't want to move out!

Hi Julie..
Another one to throw into the mix.. had our first 2 weeks here when we landed.. the folks running it drove us all over getting bank accounts set up, took us to the car auctions etc .. highly recommended

Hi I have taken a Studio in Auckland City Travellers, 93 Anzac it cost me $350 a week but you dont have a contract so can stay as long or as short as you like.

Ha ! .... small world eh :-) .. you're not a Nurse by any chance are you ??

Hi, no but use to work for NHS/med records. OH's an electrician and had to be in Auckland for him to do a 2 week course, so he can obtain his registration licence , but aren't Carol & Peter really nice people.

Ah ok :-) , they're unbelievable aren't they.. made us sooo welcome to NZ when we had just landed and gave us so much advice and assistance without being in your face in the slightest... they even gave the kids a TV they had lying around... we've still got it with the Wii plugged into it

I reckon we ought to get a kickback after this advertisement $$$

(The reason I asked if you were a nurse was that we recommended lillington to the agency that got Liz her job here so was curious if you were brought over by the same agency)

we just found it on the net, we were looking in this area as it was close to where oh was doing his course, really glad we came here, would love people like them as neighbours,,,,lets hope. sue
